IRTA Releases Program Schedule

IRTA has released its program schedule for its 35th International Convention, held this year at the beachfront Grand Oasis Resort & Spa on September 25 through 27. The convention schedule emphasizes new barter organization models, including cutting edge complementary currency systems and hybrid programs that are fast taking hold worldwide.

Additional seminars will focus on IRTA’s deficit advisory positions, the latest developments in Bitcoin and crypto-currency rulings, the IRS’s latest stance on 1099B’s for pass-through entities, sales and broker training/techniques, plus managing real estate trade and other high ticket items.

IRTA’s Executive Director Ron Whitney said, “IRTA has been very busy advocating for all segments of the barter industry, and the fruits of that pro-active advocacy work are readily apparent by the quality level of programming we have scheduled for this year’s big Cancun convention.

“Our conventions are all about learning the latest trends and issues that effect our industry — there’s no better place to access that important information than an IRTA convention. Plus, there simply isn’t a better networking event in the business, with 120 to 150 attendees from around the globe congregating in Cancun. So plan on attending — you owe it to your business, your employees and your members!”
